Every good American TV show has a British actor - comedy sketch video

A new sketch has poked fun at the prominence of British actors in American television shows.

In the video, one man attempts to name a series that doesn't star or feature influence by a Briton.

The vast majority of names fired, including The Walking Dead, Homeland and Game of Thrones, are easily batted away before a loophole is introduced counting anyone from Canada as the Queen is the country's head of state.

The challenge wasn't impossible, though - Breaking Bad, Seinfeld and The Simpsons are shows that are devoid of British influence.
